JAMMU: Apni Party leaders today met the victims whose shops were demolished recently by the Jammu Development Authority (JDA) in Muthi. As per a press release, the leaders of the Party, General Secretary - Youth Wing and Spokesperson Abhay Bakaya, District Senior Vice President, Vaibhav Mattoo, President TRT Nagrota, Chandji Bhat, Incharge Butta Nagar and Purkhoo Camp, GL Pandita, Bhushan Lal Bhat, and others, visited the residences of the affected family members, who lost their shops and held a detailed deliberation with them.
“It was unfortunate to see that some of the families of displaced Kashmiri Pandits still struggle for their respectful survival after the demolition drive of the JDA here recently. These families were poor, and they had no other source of earning. The JDA should have rehabilitated them. However, they went ahead with their drive which shows how the officials have become heartless and insensitive,” he stated.
He demanded that the Govt should intervene and rehabilitate the displaced KP families. “The JDA’s drive cannot be justified. How can it be explained to displace some families, and then settle others by constructing buildings on the dismantled structures of the poor,” he stated, questioning the intention of the Govt that has failed to grill JDA for its wrong actions.
He said that the JDA is infamous for such actions, and it should focus on providing affordable housing schemes for the poor and marginalized families of all the communities instead of creating a situation that shows their insensitive approach. He said that the waywardness of JDA will not be tolerated by the Party, and the people from all walks of life will come on the roads, if such drives continue in future in any of the places in Jammu.
While expressing his displeasure over the drive, he appealed to the Commissioner Relief Organization Jammu to immediately provide shops to the JDA drive affected families of the displaced KPs to run their business and earn their livelihood from there.
